Protect copper butterflies
Look at these gorgeous copper butterflies, all found ONLY in NZ. There are some incredibly rare ones. Aren't they beautiful?
The Moths and Butterflies of NZ Trust is fundraising to undertake DNA research for their Butterfly Discovery Project, starting with our copper butterflies. They are found only in NZ and if they become extinct, we cannot reintroduce them.
The plan is to raise $15,000 to protect the butterflies - read more about it HERE. You can help... if ten people gave $5 it will all add up. Even sharing this post far and wide will help!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
